FORT SMELLING.
The MovementIO Enlarge the Post
Not Eayorably Received.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 10.-The movement
to secure an appropriation to enlarge Fort
Smelling to fourteen company post meets
with no favorable comment at either end of
the capital. The house military committee
is dead set against it, and a majority of the
senate committee are interested III the de-
velopment OF military posts in other parts
Of the country. Chairman Bragg, Of the
house committee, said to day:
We do not need any more troops at
Fort Smelling than we have there now.

something of fight about the question of
enlarging Fort Smelling. My official life is
entirely too brief to go into fight about it.
but | can assure you that if had the time,
and the occasion should arise, | should not
have the slightest hesitation in the world
in cleaning out the whole proposition, and
IL could be done easily enough. IL strikes
me that regimental post at Fort Smelling

ought to have, and. if l do not entirely mis-
take the disposition of congress, that is all

Is Sl67, 600. Mr.. Randall has reported in
favor OF appropriating but S75. 900. The
discrepancy between the amounts is q pc
cuiiar one, and is likely to call for good

THIS Is all that is due the Minneapolis build

OF expenditures On the building at $780,
600. In reaching this conclusion he sub
tracts from the limit the S92. 900 paid for
the site, and doing this reduces the entire
amount remaining under the limit to SIS, -
600. Mr.. Bell claims that the S92, 600 had
been spent before the appropriation was
made for the building and before the $780,
coo limit was fixed. and that properly the
purchase OF the site in this case ought not
to come out of the $500, 900. With this
view Of the matter he makes the remaining
available money for the building amount to
$l67. coo. I'VE have" said Mr.. Bell.

have his way all work will have to stop Oh

a great deal of difficulty with many of our
contracts there. But think that Mr.. Ran
dali is entirely wrong, and will see the error

EIGHTH WISCONSIN DISTRICT.
GEN. Bragg Gives kais Views ON the
Situation.

OpecIdl TO the OIODo.
WASHINGTON, Jan. 10.-''That district
wont stand long that way" said Gen. Bragg
to day in commenting upon the result in
the Republican convention in the Eighth
w ISconSin district. 1T is reasonably GER
tain that the legislature this winter will re-
district the state. and they will not by any
means leave the Eighth district 16, 900 or
1000 Republican. Price had that district
made to order to suit himself. He had
been at work for years and knew exactly
how each county stood, and lust exactly
where he was knocked down in every at
tempt he made, 50 that when the chance
came he carved out the district he wanted.
l think that two or three counties will be
dropped oil OF the eastern side OF the Eighth
district and put into the Seventh, and some
Will be put into the district below. You
see the Republican managers can never af-
ford to have such solid Norwegian district
as that is Ii the N0rwegians should rise
up and take things into their own hands
they never could be put down again.
L anticipated that there would be a
pretty hot fight between the Norwegans
and the Thorp men, because if Nils Haugen
has good chance to go to congress he will
wriggle and SQuirm like turtle with hot
coal on his back, and if he ever had a
chance to go to congress this was the time.
Throwing the thing up row would have
been throwing it up forever. By the time
another chance would come around the
beautiful walk-over III the Eighth district
would have been an impossiblity. There
are other Republicans in the state of Wis
conSin who want slice of that Republican

rage broke down. throwing the infants
INTO ditch. She was not hurt, although it
was feared she was. 1t was deemed prudent
for her to remain at the scene of the acci.
dent until assistance could be procured. and
for this lackey was dispatched. Much
time was lost in all this. In the meantime
the huntSmen had gone on great distance
before they missed their royal mistress,
and when they discovered she was no
longer with them they became greatly
frightened, started a general alarm and
began a noisy search. Tho prolonged alb
sence OF the nfanta from the castle caused
uneasiness there, and finally the police and
troops were sent out in search of her. They
heard the reports which had been scattered
by the frightened huntsmen, and the whole
country was subject to securing, alarming
the people and producing the most sensa-
tiOnal story. The lackey sent for assistance
was slow and it was 10 o'clock at night be-
fore the royal carriage was found and the
truth heralded about town. What added to
the general CONSERVATION during the search

recent conspiracy attributed to stock gamb-
